I think it's time to promote yearly boosters for everyone instead of just immunocompromised.

I think it's time to promote yearly boosters for everyone instead of just immunocompromised.

I very much agree.

I think I should get a booster. Went to the mall yesterday and it was PACKED. Now I’m a bit paranoid.

I certainly would. There's still a lot of new cases every day. At least 200 daily deaths here in America.

Got my bivalent Covid booster and flu shot yesterday.

Good to see you guys doing the right thing. I don't want to lose any of you.

 

[BrollySupersj]

I do wonder though, when I inevitably get Covid again if I'll be asymptomatic like before. Has that happened to anyone? Being asymptomatic twice?

It would be a lucky thing if it was true.

 

[Prison Mike]

Got my booster today. Hopefully I won’t feel any side effects.

Hope so, too. it's a misery when it happens.

People who skipped their COVID vaccine are at higher risk of traffic accidents, according to a new study | Fortune

The findings are significant enough that primary care doctors should consider counseling unvaccinated patients on traffic safety—and insurance companies might base changes to insurance policies on vaccination data

This is my only worry for the rest of us with China's pathetic covid strategy - that it'll cause another more virulent subvariant that will dodge the vaccines.

However, in the case of B7 it appears that this is not happening thus far. Rates in the UK for instance, remain low. Looks like our vaccine immunity is doing its job.
